HISTORICAL  [  11 


Historical 

| HE  Physicians'  Club  was  formed  by  the  union 
of  the  Doctors'  and  Practitioners'  Clubs.  The 
former  had  a  membership  almost  wholly  on  the 
South  Side,  while  the  latter  was  composed  of 
members  from  every  part  of  the  city.  Their 
aims  and  purposes  were  similar,  viz. :  to  promote  sociability 
and  good  fellowship  among  the  members  of  the  profession, 
and  to  discuss  at  monthly  meetings  general  topics  of  current 
interest  related  in  any  way  to  medical  affairs. 

It  was  thought  that  a  combination  of  these  forces  would 
be  more  useful  and  more  productive  of  good  than  both  oper- 
ating singly. 

In  answer  to  an  invitation  from  the  Executive  Committee 
of  the  Practitioners'  Club,  the  Executive  Committees  of  both 
Clubs  met  October  14th,  1895,  and  agreed  to  advise  consolida- 
tion of  the  membership,  and  that  the  Doctors'  Club  amend  its 
Charter  by  inserting  the  word  "Physicians' "  in  place  of  the 
word  "Doctors'."  It  was  further  agreed  that  all  members  in 
good  standing,  in  either  of  the  Clubs,  should  be  members  of 
the  new  organization ;  that  the  membership  should  be  limited 
to  250 ;  that  the  annual  dues  should  be  $2.00 ;  and  that  monthly 
meetings,  with  dinners  and  discussion  should  be  the  order,  as 
heretofore. 

The  Reports  of  the  Committees  were  discussed  by  each 
of  the  Clubs  in  special  session,  and  adopted  by  vote. 

The  first  meeting  of  the  new  organization  was  held  at  the 
Union  League  Club,  Monday  evening,  Nov.  25th,  1895.  Dr. 
John  Ridlon  presided,  and  sixty-five  members  from  both  of  the 
old  Clubs  were  present.  The  new  Constitution  and  By-Laws, 
which  had  been  formulated  and  endorsed  by  the  Executive 
Committees  in  a  joint  session,  were  presented  and  adopted. 

With  the  notice  for  the  meeting  of  January  25th,  1897,  at 
which  the  subject  was  discussed  "What  is  the  attitude  of  the 


12  ]  HISTORICAL 

Physicians'  Club  in  local  political  affairs?"  a  postal  card  vote 
was  taken,  which  resulted  almost  unanimously  in  the  resolu- 
tion that  the  Club  should  take  some  active  part  in  local 
municipal  affairs. 

Final  action  upon  this  question  was  deferred  until  the 
meeting  of  the  Club  which  was  held  February  22nd,  1897. 
The  following  resolutions  were  adopted : 

Whereas,  The  necessity  is  apparent  for  every  good  citizen 
to  use  his  influence  to  promote  local  good  government,  and 

Whereas,  It  appears  that  the  Physicians'  Club  may  reason- 
ably undertake  as  an  organization  that  which  each  individual 
may  undertake,  therefore, 

Be  it  Resolved,  That  the  Physicians'  Club  shall,  in  a  non- 
partisan way,  exert  its  influence  for  good  government  in  Chi- 
cago. 

Resolved:  That  no  discussion  or  action  upon  a  question 
which  is  of  a  partisan  or  party  character  shall  be  tolerated. 

Resolved:  That  a  committee  of  five,  which  may  be  called 
a  Good  Government  Committee,  be  appointed  by  the  Directors, 
which  committee  shall  act  in  conjunction  with  the  Civic  Feder- 
ation, the  Municipal  Authorities  League,  and  other  organiza- 
tions for  similar  objects,  that  none  but  good  men  may  be 
nominated  for  local  offices,  and  that  the  members  of  the  Club 
may  be  informed  as  to  the  best  men  before  them  for  their 
suffrages. 

Resolved:  That  it  is  the  sense  of  the  Club  that  all  med- 
ical offices  be  filled  by  medical  men. 

This  committee  took  immediate  action  and  issued  a  circu- 
lar to  nearly  all  the  physicians  and  dentists  of  Chicago,  con- 
taining information  and  advice  concerning  the  candidates  in 
the  spring  municipal  election. 

The  Physicians'  Club  of  Chicago  represents  the  liberal- 
minded  element  in  the  profession.  It  takes  cognizance  of 
political  and  sociological  conditions  which  relate  to  medical 
practice  and  principle.  It  has  denounced,  in  no  uncertain 
manner,  partisan  favoritism  in  the  management  of  our  health 
department.     It  has  taken  exception  to  irregularities  in  the 


HISTORICAL [13 

administration  of  public  charities  and  the  control  of  eleemosy- 
nary institutions.  It  has  criticised  any  apparent  deviation 
from  professional  etiquette.  It  has  discussed  with  freedom 
some  of  the  vagaries  of  contemporaneous  practice.  It  has 
invited  to  participate  in  its  discussions  and  has  treated  in  a 
tolerant  manner,  persons  holding  all  sorts  of  opinions  on  all 
sorts  of  questions.  It  is  an  open  arena  to  which  is  invited 
the  expression  of  the  most  diversified  views  on  matters  per- 
taining to  the  welfare  of  society.  It  seeks  the  truth,  and  its 
endeavor  is  to  foster  a  spirit  of  altruism  among  its  members. 
Its  meetings  are  well  attended  and  the  consideration  of 
live  topics  of  the  day  has  often  been  animated.  The  Club  is 
constantly  growing  in  usefulness,  and  it  occupies  today  a 
higher  and  more  influential  position  in  public  estimation  than 
ever  before.  The  period  just  passed  has  marked  the  best  in 
the  life  of  the  Club — may  we  not  hope  and  work  for  still 
greater  achievements  in  the  years  to  come? 

Because  of  the  broadening  scope  of  the  work  of  the  Club, 
and  the  fact  that  there  has  repeatedly  been  upon  the  waiting 
list,  a  large  number  of  applicants  for  membership,  the  Con- 
stitution was  amended,  the  annual  dues  being  increased  to  two 
dollars  and  fifty  cents,  and  the  active  membership  to  three 
hundred.

An  Executive  Session  was  held  in  which  were  discussed 
and  adopted  the  following  resolutions  presented  by  the  Good 
Government  Committee : 

Whereas,  The  necessity  is  apparent  and  urgent  for  every 
good  citizen  to  use  his  influence  to  promote  local  good  gov- 
ernment; and 

Whereas,  It  appears  that  The  Physicians'  Club  may  rea- 
sonably undertake,  as  an  organization,  that  which  each  mem- 
ber attempts  individually;  therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  The  Physicians'  Club  shall,  in  a  non- 
partisan way,  exert  its  influence  for  good  government  in 
Chicago. 

Resolved,  That  no  discussion  of  nor  action  upon  a  question 
which  is  of  a  partisan  or  party  character  shall  be  tolerated. 

Resolved,  That  a  Committee  of  five,  which  may  be  called 
the  "Good  Government  Committee,"  be  appointed  by  the 
Directors,  which  Committee  shall  act  in  conjunction  with  the 
Civic  Federation,  the  Municipal  Voters'  League,  and  other 
organizations  having  similar  objects,  to  the  end,  that  good  men 
may  be  nominated  for  local  offices,  and  that  the  members  of 
the  Club  may  be  informed  as  to  the  best  men  before  them 
for  their  suffrages. 

Resolved,  That  it  is  the  sense  of  the  Club  that  all  medical 
offices  shall  be  filled  by  medical  men. 


The  business  session  was  followed  by  a  social  entertain- 
ment in  which  the  ladies  participated.
